Blank Stare Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Bummer on Milano, but surprised they’d go Bernard over Dodson. I’m good with getting a look at the rook, but didn’t seem like something McD would do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milano had the same issues early on. I think the defense will do it's best to cover for Bernard's deficiencies today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it was clear that he comes first instead of Milano specifically though. Anyway, I am not disappointed. I want to see him play. You never know who is going to be available in playoffs so let other guys gain some experience.

hemma Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Bernard has slug speed in coverage but is a sneaky good blitzer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straight Hucklebuck Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 They’re doing their best on WGR to play up Nyheim Hines speed factor like he’s a breakaway runner. Saying he moves like a WR. I think he moves like a scat back, or as Chan Gailey would say - a water bug. Saying he take it to the house whereas Singletary gets caught. This is not Reggie Bush at USC. He’s an upgrade over Zack Moss, but I’d rather see the Bills continue to Singletary and Cook as the primary runners. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like make a tackle and not giving up 7 extra yards or whiffing or choosing the wrong gap. He has played well this year until Green Bay and he was atrocious, if we get that play with a rookie LB out there we could be in trouble with time of possession and really putting it all on JA to play a mistake free game. Missing both safeties and Milano is a big ask without Edmunds stepping up to be “the man” in the defense. It is time for him to play and mature into an all pro. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edmunds isn't going to be asked to play safety or SLB. He's going to be expected to do exactly what he's been doing already. Bernard, Hamlin, and Johnson are the ones needing to step up. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All his college tape/draft analysis had him as a Milano clone. Great blitzer and fast for a LB. Maybe that was all overrated, but he could also look slow because the game hasn’t slowed down for him yet. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what you actually meant to say was the def line needs to have a better game than last week… it’s ok though, we all make mistakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBaumer Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 I don't think there is any such thing as a trap game this year when they know that the key to the Super Bowl is home field advantage in the playoffs. There is pressure to stay ahead of the Chiefs every single game. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost every rookie says the NFL was really fast for then rookie year. Hopefully the game slowed down for Bernard some. He was a playmaker his last college year. Milano should be All Pro. His diagnosis, reaction time, tackling form- fantastic! Bernard I'm sure is watching plenty of Milano tape. He is a great player to try and emulate 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I thought about it and realized that's truly a compliment - when "next man up" is taking care of business, the injuries go unremarked. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
